Description: The research on metals in their liquid state has been underestimated for a long time and the specific literature was scarce compared to those regarding solid metals. In the last twenty years, the situation has progressively changed and the matter has emerged as a fundamental area of investigation for physicists, metallurgists and materials scientists with consequent achievement of relevant results both on basic and applicative aspects. Today the description and the characterisation of molten metals and alloys is a wide and interdisciplinary topic and involves different approaches, from physics to technology, from processing to modelling.
The book is structured in review and research papers and offers the state-of-the-art information on physics, technological properties, processing and modelling of physical and technological behaviour of liquid metals and alloys.

Description: This volume presents the proceedings of the International Symposium on Ecological Environment and Technology of Concrete, held on August 1st to 4th, 2011 in Beijing, China.
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The main aim of this symposium was to highlight the relationship between concrete technology and the ecological environment; thus covering a wide range of topics such as the preparation of high-strength/high-performance concrete, durability, raw materials, workability, chemical admixtures, new applications, property characterization, environmental impact of concrete production and behavior of concrete structures. In all, 70 papers from China, Norway and the USA were presented at the conference. These proceedings offer a very up-to-date overview of the field.
